Elon Musk doesn't care for child victims nor justice, Starmer says in grooming gangs row
Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla and SpaceX gestures during an 'in-conversation' event with then Prime Minister Rishi Sunak in central London, November 2, 2023

ELON MUSK does not care about child rape victims nor justice, said Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer today as he warned the world’s richest man that a “line has been crossed” when people receive serious threats as a result of the “poison of the far right.”

The tech billionaire ally of Donald Trump has called safeguarding minister Jess Phillips a “rape genocide apologist” who “deserves to be in prison” for denying requests for a Home Office-led inquiry into child sexual exploitation in Oldham.

The Tesla owner also suggested that Sir Keir was “complicit in the crimes” of child-sex offenders in his ongoing tirade to his 210 million followers on his X social media site.
